Susquehanna County Resists Federal Gun Grab

Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania is the latest local community to take a stand against the Police State. They recently passed a 2nd Amendment Preservation Resolution that stands against the Feds trampling upon the Constitution in their neck of the woods.

The resolution affirms the natural rights of people saying that “any federal act, bill, law, rule or executive order that in any way infringes on our Second Amendment rights by attempting to reduce the private ownership of any firearm, magazine or ammunition shall be unenforceable in Susquehanna County.”

As Judge Andrew Napolitano has said recently, widespread noncompliance can make a federal law “nearly impossible to enforce” (video here)

The passing of this resolution also marks a rare instance where bipartisanship within government works to the benefit of the American people. The resolution was introduced by Republican Commissioner Michael Giangrieco and supported by Democratic Commissioner MaryAnn Warren, as well as the whole committee. It was passed unanimously.

“The Constitution is in place to protect us from the government. They’ve got it backwards,” Commissioner Giangrieco said. It is refreshing to hear such common sense sentiments from government officials who usually do everything they can to obfuscate the real meaning of the Constitution in order bamboozle the public into giving them more power and money.

If you would like to see your county or city follow in Susquehanna’s lead, please take our model legislation- the 2nd Amendment Preservation Act to your representatives. You can also track these types of bills as they spread like wildfire throughout the country with our legislative tracker. Please spread the word too about these practical measures that can be taken by individuals to make a difference in our struggle to restore the Constitution!

This is a work in progress all over the country. Give it time to see more local and state governments passing nullification laws that will render any 2nd amendment restrictions passed by the federal government.

The more I think about it, the more I like Emil’s idea of going shopping in the county. And being vocal about why. Good way to show the whole country how big a majority we are and what happens when you do the right thing. I’d go another step and browse down the page, identify more counties/boros whose sheriffs/councils/LE have come out in support of nullification and patronize their districts, too, as always being up front about why. This might be a good thread all its own Tenth Amendment Center. We all need to eat/shop/buy something, so let’s keep the business in the patriot community.

There is always that possibility, Anthony; Lord knows it has been done to us a time or two before. The more important thing is to take the ball and run with it: the more folks who know about it, the more who will be thinking along the right lines and getting ready for the time.

Can and will, and that too is a large part of the problem: the money is supposed to flow the other direction. Having to live within our own means again won’t hurt us one bit. If we can get control of our food/clothing/shelter/and energy back to do it with we’ll be on easy street.

The federal government can bully counties or states for taking stands like this. The federal government gives less funds for transportaion or highways to states that do not have a minimum drinking age of 21. So the federal government can punish them for passing this.

Way to go Susquehanna! I am writing to my local rep about HB76 and he happens to sit on the Finance committee. I’ve already heard back from him on gun control and he is a great representative. I’m still new at this ‘writing your government official’ bit but i can not be silent any longer!

The states telling the feds what’s what, the counties telling the state what’s what, the townships and boros telling the counties what’s what and We the People directing our own townships/boros is how all that was supposed to work, large nut and small shell that the example is.

Its a link to one of the sponsors, but both sections are going to be ’76’, i think (House Bill 76 and Senate Bill 76). All you need to do is call YOUR local rep and senator and tell them you support the proposal.

Actually, on the heels of all the state’s rights fervor, I also believe in the ‘or the people, respectively’ part. Township/boro is really the smallest effective (manageable) slice we can carve govt into, but to affront the feds and state tyrants our sheriffs are at the county level, so those issues probably should be there instead of at the capitol.

All the county in every state come out and say the same thing maybe just maybe the idiot President and the idiot politicians DC will get message that we the public are not stupid, and quit trying to fuck use.
